Super Jet 61x/61x intakes

[jeremy chambon]

Hi I have a stock ported 61x/61x what's the best intake to run I have a wet jet intake with the read stuffer. If I put that on will I need to rejet and adjust my pop off pressure or should I get a twin carb intake?

You are lookin for love in all the wrong places. Dont worry about changing the intake side until you have a good pipe and ported cylinder. Most of all, learn how to tune your current setup before making any changes from the flame arrestor down.

Well I'm running a b pipe (mod) and 180psi. I have a wet jet intake on my shelf. Is it worth the gasket to put on.

I have a 144 mag with a 12/17 for my pump And don't quite have the money to finish my 62t/61x. So I have hook just looking for a little more snap.

put it on. they work great. especially if you have the 46 carb too

 

[jeremy chambon]

Just the 44. Does the twin carb 61x setup make a big difference over a single 44?

^if you decide to, I have a brand new dual 61X protec manifold. Still in package.

I honestly cant speak on which is better... single 46... wet jet etc... but just wanted to throw it out there !

Chris thanks I think I'm going to try out the wet jet intake

unless ported, not worth duals.

There were some Wetjet manifolds that had 46mm carb spacing, if yours is like this, just use a dremel to elongate your carb holes.

Idk what size mines for I haven't looked that close at it. But I did notice two of the bolt holes don't line up with the case if I recall correctly. Sounds like this mite be a job for next weekend. Is tere a tech thread on intakes?

It wont make a big difference, just a little one. With a stock ported cylinder, a total waste of time.

 

[jeremy chambon]

^good to know.

 

[BruceSki]

Are you positive you have the good intake? All wetjet motors were gold but not all of them had west coast parts on them.

The top of the intake should have WPP stamped on it on the throttle bracket side.

All I know is it has the Reed stuffer if I make down to my shop this week ill look
